One person has been shot and killed in what is believed to be a reprisal attack following the shooting of two Level 400 students from Gambaga College of Education on Wednesday, March 12, 2025.

The victim, a resident of Sagabo, was reportedly attacked while tending his cattle near the Sagabo-Zoogin area in Bawku.
On Wednesday, two students of the Gambaga College of Education were shot in the Gambaga township in an incident believed to be linked to the ongoing Bawku conflict.
The conflict in Bawku erupted in November 2021 following attempts to install a parallel chief in the area.
Since its resurgence in October 2024, about 73 people, including women and children, have been killed.
